Drag & drop an image or click to browse

Supports JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF

Privacy Awareness

Location Exposure

Photos can reveal your exact GPS coordinates, exposing where you live, work, or frequently visit.

Device Fingerprinting

Camera make, model, and serial numbers can identify your specific device and link photos to you.

Temporal Data

Timestamps reveal when photos were taken, potentially exposing your routines and schedule.

OSINT Implications

Investigators and researchers use metadata for open-source intelligence gathering and forensics.

Tips for Protecting Your Privacy

•Disable geotagging in your camera settings to prevent GPS data from being embedded.
•Use metadata removal tools before sharing images publicly or with untrusted parties.
•Most social media platforms (Instagram, Twitter, Facebook) automatically strip EXIF data on upload.
•Be cautious when sharing original files via email, cloud storage, or forums — metadata is preserved.
•Taking a screenshot of a photo effectively removes all EXIF metadata from the resulting image.
